The Auckland Aces have named an unchanged XII for their return fixture against the Wellington Firebirds at the Basin Reserve, Wellington in the Burger King Super Smash.
After winning off the final ball at the Outer Oval on Christmas Eve, the team has pulled up well and are hoping to make it two from two against the Firebirds tomorrow, December 26, 2017.
Aces Skipper Craig Cachopa said, “We really got out of jail on Christmas Eve but that is testament to the character and resolve in this team. Different boys are stepping up at different times; that is what this team is all about. We are confident, we are ready for our next challenge against the Firebirds tomorrow.”
